PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Jesus Ramirez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Raul Santiago (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ramirez kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Cypress Hill - Latin Thugs. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Raul Santiago was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
